Maths GIFs: parabolas

Image
One of the fantastic features of dynamic graphing software is that you can animate how a graph changes as some aspect of it is varied. I'm particularly keen on making short GIFs of animated graphs that demonstrate interesting properties.  One advantage of animated GIFs is that they are really easy to distribute via Twitter. There are loads of them if you have a look at the hashtag #mathgif .  Parabolas I've been posting animated Maths GIFs to Twitter for quite a while now. Here are some of my favourites featuring parabolas: The midpoint of the points of intersection of y  =  x ² and y  = mx  + c lies on the line x = m /2. The tangent at point P to a parabola with vertex Q can be constructed by finding R, the point of intersection of the vertical through P and the horizontal through Q, finding the midpoint, M, of QR and then drawing the line through P and M. If the tangents at two points A and B on a parabola are perpendicular then the line AB goes through the focus and the tang

Desmos Classroom Activities: An ideal tool for remote/blended learning

Image
The past few months have been a very chaotic time for teachers and students. Many schools and colleges are now back to teaching full time but this year is likely to be very challenging and teachers want to know that they can provide opportunities for students to learn, even if the normal day-to-day routines are disrupted. For me, one tool stands out as particularly effective in ensuring that students have interesting and engaging activities that will develop their mathematical understanding: Desmos Classroom. Desmos Classroom Activities  Desmos Classroom activities are collections of screens that provide students with the opportunity to interact and respond to mathematical questions. They can feature text answers, mathematical answers, graphical features, multi-choice, card sorts and many other types of elements.  There is a large selection of pre-made activities and it's really easy to adapt these or create your own. These activities are great for supporting students in thinking d

Slice of Advice: What have I learned this year?

Image
I recently submitted a short clip for Craig Barton’s podcast on the theme of Slice of Advice: What have I learned this year?  In this I suggested two things that had had an impact on me this year: the use of graphing apps on smartphones and diagrams representing functions as mappings between number lines. Graphing apps on smartphones I’ve been using GeoGebra for over ten years now and it has had a huge impact on how I think about mathematics and teaching mathematics. I’ve also been massively impressed with Desmos though I don’t know it inside-out in the way I do with GeoGebra. My use of these graphing tools, and Autograph before it, was always based on using them on a computer and this means I have a preference for the computer software over the phone apps: I find them much more usable on a large screen with a proper keyboard and mouse.  This works fine for me but, as I’ve commented on here before, I think the greatest impact of technology in the mathematics classroom is as a resu
